Six classic shots of America's Cup

The following are six classic scenes in the history of the America's Cup, including the shocking hat-trick of missing a penalty and Honduras' defeat of four-star Brazil.

1, Palermo regrets missing the penalty hat-trick for life (1999, Argentina vs Colombia).

The above is one of the most classic photos in football history. Although it looks funny, Palermo looks like a disguised woman imitating Beyonce's performance, or more appropriately, imitating Superman's underwear, but in fact this photo records the most unlucky scene in football history and the strong figure of the hero. However, although at the lowest point of his career, Palermo still conquered everyone's ridicule with his own courage and won respect. Faced with the boos and jeers of countless fans and fake fans, Palermo was fearless and lost many wars. No matter what the final result is, at least, his failure did not come from his own timidity. Who has a tiger falling in Pingyang, wait for me to come back. Palermo's career left two most precious things, courage and goals. Although he forgot to check whether it was written in the yellow calendar that day, at least he showed his courage to the world.

Palermo scored twice in the first game against Ecuador, helping the team get off to a good start 3-/kloc-0. The second game against Colombia, only 5 minutes after the opening, got the golden opportunity. And it was from this time that his scoring luck took a turn for the worse. He was so eager to make achievements that he blew the penalty onto the beam with one foot. Two minutes later, Cordoba scored a penalty to help Colombia take the lead. Since then, the Argentines led by Riquelme have completely mastered the initiative of the game with the exquisite football like tango dance steps, but they have never been able to turn their advantages into goals. At the beginning of the second half, Colombia got another penalty opportunity. Ricard, who plays for Middlesbrough, was fouled. He took Cordoba's serve and missed the penalty. 14 minutes later, Riquelme sent a wonderful pass to Palermo, and Palermo's header was blocked by the Colombian defender just before flying into the net. So Palermo once again stood in front of the penalty. This time it was even worse than the first half. I hit the plane directly. "Dear Lord, why do you torture him like this?" Watching Palermo pull up his underwear to vent his frustration after missing a penalty kick, the Argentine commentator burst into tears.

In this game, Argentina will soon suffer a double blow after every penalty missed. Three minutes later, Congo helped Colombia lead 2-0. Then Colombia took the initiative. In the 87th minute, 16-year-old player Montano scored another goal. The game seems to have entered garbage time, Palermo is the only Argentine player on the field who has not lost his fighting spirit. In the 90th minute, it seems that he finally got his reward. After rushing into the penalty area like a bull, he lost the ball, lost his balance and fell into the penalty area. The referee also seems to have some sympathy for Argentina's experience in this game and awarded them a rather slight penalty. If it is anyone else, they can't bear the shame and pain caused by losing another penalty, so they will give it to other teammates. But Palermo made it clear that he would take the penalty.

Palermo, who looked a little tired, ran a little shorter than the first two, and the shot was not so powerful-but it was still within the door frame. Unfortunately, goalkeeper Cariet Lowe judged correctly and saved a penalty that could have saved Palermo some face. Excited, Corello immediately hugged and congratulated his teammates, leaving Palermo alone to face the ridicule from all over the world. However, Palermo, who had the courage to bear it, finally got its own salvation. The warrior, who suffered from injuries, participated in last year's World Cup in South Africa at the age of 36, and scored a goal in the group match against Greece, becoming the oldest scorer in the history of the World Cup in Argentina.

2 1987 final (Chile 0- 1 lost to Uruguay)

What's worse than football rubbish? 1986 World Cup Uruguay kicks and punches Scotland for 90 minutes. A player was sent off after playing for 55 seconds, and the whole team escaped several red cards. After the game, Walker, secretary general of the Scottish Football Association, called Uruguay "a liar, coward and rubbish on the football field". However, at the Copa America a year later, Uruguayans found themselves victims. They met a Chilean team aimed at creating more violence on the court. 1987 America's Cup is a very special America's Cup. From the beginning, the game between Colombia and Bolivia set the tone for the whole game. Four players were sent off in two accidents only five minutes apart. However, Chile was dirtier than any other team in the final. They used malicious fouls repeatedly throughout the game and seemed to be proud of it.

There are only four red cards (including Francescoli) in this final. He was sent off by a red card after an exaggerated diving by a Chilean defender, which fully reflected the indulgence of malicious fouls in the rules at that time (and the punishment scale of referee accomplices). From today's point of view, an attack of 5 points 15 seconds can't escape the punishment of a red card anyway. It also seems to remind us how good it is for a player like francescoli to pass the ball between such defenders. If this Chilean team crosses today, Messi will find himself back to the height of dwarfism after playing a game. However, the result of this game is reasonable. Bengoa scored the only goal to help the strongest team win the first place in the group. It is worth mentioning that it is this Uruguayan team that defeated the host Argentina in the semi-final and reached the final. 1987, Argentina, who do you have in mind?

3. Honduras entered the 200 1 semi-final.

The 200 1 Copa America started in a mess, and then reached its climax in the glass fragments on the ground. The competition was held in Colombia. . . Oh! No, I moved. . . No, they are the owners. For security reasons, the South American Football Association announced that it would hold the Copa America 200 1 in Venezuela near the opening ceremony, and then changed its mind and returned to Colombia. This also led Argentina and Canada to withdraw from this America's Cup for fear of the threat of Colombian opposition forces. So Costa Rica and Honduras were invited to participate. Of course, when the invitation was issued, everyone thought it was just to join in the fun. After all, the two teams have never even played in the World Cup. In fact, Honduras even spared no effort to join in the fun: they put together a team in a hurry and then arrived on a plane of the Colombian Air Force a few hours before the first game. Their first game naturally lost to Costa Rica 1-0. But in the next two group matches, they defeated Bolivia and Uruguay and finally qualified smoothly.

Even the most optimistic Honduran fans will admit that their luck has come to an end when Honduras meets Big Mac Brazil in the quarter-finals. Although this Brazilian team didn't go all out, only a few players from the five-star Brazilian team appeared in this America's Cup (the most famous ones were Cristiano Ronaldo, rivaldo and Ronaldinho), but the thin camel was bigger than the horse and easily crushed Honduras, not to mention Brazil's second team and even Brazil's twelfth team. After the unremarkable first half, Brazil regained its fighting spirit and spirit in the second half, and they gradually mastered the initiative on the field. Until Julio Leon went down to the right of the penalty area, a beautiful right foot hit the Brazilian defender, and then he sent a clever cross just over the Brazilian defender's head. Martinez, who was unmarked in the middle, jumped high and headed the ball to the far corner of the gate. This is also Brazil's bad luck. Martinez's header hit the far post. After being bounced off the edge of the post by Brazilian defender Belletti, Belletti didn't have time to dodge and crashed the ball into his own goal.

In fact, this excellent Honduran team almost expanded the score to 2-0 after 5 minutes, but the goal was invalidated due to the referee's mistake. Until then, Brazil seems to have recovered a little feeling and launched an attack on the position of Honduras. However, Honduras' defense is not bad at all, forcing Brazil to take a chance through long-range shots and corner kicks. As the atmosphere became tense, Honduran central defender Caccamo and Brazilian captain Emerson fought and were both sent off. Brazil's counterattack has never yielded substantial results, but Honduras has gone to the next city in stoppage time. Honduras's captain and spiritual leader, midfielder Guevara blocked Brazil's final blow and launched a quick counterattack. In the end, Martinez seized the opportunity in front of the door and pushed the cross into the empty net. "I will go down in history as the head coach of Brazil who lost to Honduras. These guys cheat too much, "Scolari complained after the game. But failure is the mother of success, and good days are waiting for him. For Honduras, fairy tales did not come true in the end. Colombia defeated Colombia 2-0 in the semi-final, but finally won the third and fourth finals with Uruguay through a penalty shootout. Their almost fairy-tale trip to the Copa America ended successfully with Guevara being elected as the best player in the Copa America.

4, Argentina's self-redemption, 199 1 Copa America.

Millwall fans: "Nobody likes our football, so what?" We don't care. " This routine soon went out of fashion. Oh, yeah, you don't care anyway. I'm sorry I talked too much. Anyway, Argentina doesn't care whether other teams like their football or not in the 1990 World Cup. They used all kinds of unconventional kicking methods and finally rushed into the final. Yes, they did score a perfect goal against Brazil, which was planned by diego maradona and completed by caniggia. But for most of the rest of the World Cup, their playing style was a serious insult to football. And their almost rogue performance in the final almost made them synonymous with hooliganism.

However, just after the World Cup, Argentina is like a new team. Argentina's performance in 199 1 year left a good impression on people. If Argentina left the world with two fingers (and a sly elbow) in the 1990 World Cup, then the new Argentina of Brazil left it to fans all over the world with wonderful fake moves and amazing passes. The brightest stars in the team include Diego latour, Rio Rodriguez and Dario Frank (he scored a wonderful header in the 3-2 victory over Brazil, and the game was as hot as ever, with a total of five red cards). These players played beyond their own level in this competition and reached the peak of their personal careers. Gabriel batistuta, the team's striker, raised his level to a new level in this competition and kept it at this level for many years. Argentina not only won the championship trophy, but also won the recognition and admiration of fans all over the world.

5. Argentina vs Brazil

It must be said that the wonderful match between Brazil and Argentina is one of the eternal topics in football. The above-mentioned Argentina 199 1 3-2 winning game is just an episode in countless encounters between the two teams. Since Brazil left angrily in the final of the first America's Cup (then the South American Football Championship) in 1937 (they said after the game that they left not because they were behind the score, but because they were worried about the security situation and protested against racist fans), the match between the two teams has become a mixture of hatred, meanness and superb skills. Two years later, Argentina was replaced by Argentina. This time, their reason was that the referee was shameless and partial, leaving the unguarded door to Brazilian penalty shooters, and Brazil won 3-2. Then there were two scuffles, 1945 and 1946. In both games, players were seriously injured because of their opponents' bad tackles. The game of 1946 was a complete farce. The game was interrupted twice: first, a Brazilian player clashed with the police, and then the fans rushed into the stadium to interrupt the game.

There are also relatively peaceful and less notorious games between the two teams. For example, 1995, turio and Malawi equalized the score with handball at 8 1 minute (also called "the devil's hand" by the aggrieved Argentine media). But the most important thing for the fans is that Brazil and Argentina gave us many wonderful moments and goals, except for countless farce scandals. For example, 1983, the winning goal of Gareka in the group match, and perhaps the most wonderful goal: 1979, the wonderful volley of Setita in the America's Cup group match. At that time, he took the ball outside the penalty area on the right side of the frontcourt, and after one-on-one cooperation with his teammates, he broke into the penalty area and poked a wonderful volley with his toe, just over the head of the Argentine goalkeeper and flew into the far corner of the goal. This goal also helped Brazil beat the world champion 2-/kloc-0-0 at home, and finally they drew Argentina 2-2 away, with Argentina at the bottom of the group.

6. Juan Carlos Obritas scored three goals in the penalty area: Peru vs Chile, 1975.

Peru and Chile have been arguing for decades about the "patent right" of continuous kicking, and they may not have solved this argument yet. However, in 1975 America's Cup, Obritas silenced his opponent with his exquisite three-practice kick.
